About
The Costa Tropical is the stunning, unspoiled stretch of Mediterranean coastline belonging to the province of Granada, extending from La Herradura in the west to the dramatic cliffs beyond Motril in the east. Named for its remarkably mild microclimate—warm enough to support extensive cultivation of tropical fruits including mangoes, avocados, cherimoyas, and sugarcane—it offers a dramatically different experience from the heavily developed Costa del Sol to the west.
The two jewels of the Costa Tropical are the ancient seaside town of Almuñécar, with its imposing Moorish castle, Roman aqueduct, and stunning botanical park, and the breathtaking hilltop village of Salobreña, whose whitewashed houses cascade down a steep rocky promontory crowned by a medieval Arab fortress directly overlooking the sea. The Costa Tropical's beaches are characterized by dramatic coves, crystalline waters, and a refreshing absence of mass tourism—making it one of the last genuinely authentic stretches of the Spanish Mediterranean coast.
